Famous quotes containing the words jungle and/or music:

    There is something I have forgotten, some precious thing.
    I shall be seeking ornaments of ivory,
    I shall be dying for a jungle fruit.

    You do not hear, Bethesda.
    O still green water in a stagnant pool!
    Arna Bontemps (1902–1973)

    The train was crammed, the heat stifling. We feel out of sorts, but do not quite know if we are hungry or drowsy. But when we have fed and slept, life will regain its looks, and the American instruments will make music in the merry cafe described by our friend Lange. And then, sometime later, we die.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
